A small but mighty player in international trade, Netherlands shipped US$709.2 billion worth of goods around the globe in 2019. That dollar amount reflects a 62.2% increase since 2015 and a 21.1% gain from 2018 to 2019 for the powerhouse European Union member.
Based on the average exchange rate for 2019, the Netherlands uses the euro which appreciated by 0.9% against the US dollar since 2015 but declined by -5.5% from 2018 to 2019. The weaker EU currency in 2019 made Dutch exports paid for in stronger US dollars relatively less expensive for international buyers compared to 2018.
The latest available country-specific data shows that 69.3% of products exported from Netherlands were bought by importers in: Germany (21.8% of the global total), Belgium (10.5%), France (8.1%), United Kingdom (7.9%), United States (4.6%), Italy (3.7%), Spain (3%), Poland (2.4%), Sweden (2.2%), China (2.1%), Czech Republic (1.7%) and Switzerland (1.3%).
From a continental perspective, about three-quarters of exports by value from the Netherlands were delivered to fellow European countries while 10.4% were sold to importers in Asia. The Netherlands shipped another 5.7% worth of goods to North America. Smaller percentages went to Africa (2.7%), Latin America excluding Mexico but including the Caribbean (1.9%) then Oceania led by Australia and New Zealand (0.6%).
Given the Dutch population of 17.2 million people, Netherlands' total $709.2 billion in 2019 exports translates to roughly $41,200 for every resident in the northwest European country with a northern coastline along the North Sea.

5.0 out of 5 stars These are 7 1/4 x 16 but reads on tire 8-16 By Ned on January 2, 2020 Tires look great and of good quality but as shown in pictures these are 7.25 -16 which I hope I can air these up because of the spacing between tire and rim.
- Machinery including computers: US$101.8 billion (14.3% of total exports)
- Mineral fuels including oil: $91.3 billion (12.9%)
- Electrical machinery, equipment: $90.8 billion (12.8%)
- Pharmaceuticals: $48.4 billion (6.8%)
- Optical, technical, medical apparatus: $36.9 billion (5.2%)
- Vehicles: $30.4 billion (4.3%)
- Plastics, plastic articles: $25.6 billion (3.6%)
- Organic chemicals: $20.4 billion (2.9%)
- Iron, steel: $14 billion (2%)
- Other chemical goods: $12 billion (1.7%)
The Netherlands' top 10 exports accounted for roughly two-thirds (66.5%) of the overall value of its global shipments.
Pharmaceuticals was the fastest grower among the top 10 export categories, up by 69.8% from 2018 to 2019. In second place for improving export sales was electrical machinery and equipment via a 54.2% gain. Dutch shipments of machinery including computers posted the third-fastest gain in value up by 33.9%.
The year-over-year decliners among Netherlands' top 10 export categories were organic chemicals (down -3.5%) and plastics including articles made from plastic (down -1.9%).
Note that the results listed above are at the categorized two-digit Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) code level.

Advantages
Overall the Netherlands earned a $73.3 billion trade surplus in 2019, a positive trade balance that expanded by 14.2% over the $64.2 billion surplus one year earlier.
The following types of Dutch product shipments represent positive net exports or a trade balance surplus.
Investopedia defines net exports as the value of a country's total exports minus the value of its total imports. In a nutshell, net exports represent the amount by which foreign spending on a home country's goods or services exceeds or lags the home country's spending on foreign goods or services.
- Machinery including computers: US$16.8 billion (Up by 25.4% since 2018)
- Pharmaceuticals: $15.8 billion (Up by 32.9%)
- Optical, technical, medical apparatus: $9 billion (Up by 29.4%)
- Live trees, plants, cut flowers: $8.3 billion (Up by 0.9%)
- Plastics, plastic articles: $8.1 billion (Down by -18.8%)
- Meat: $5.6 billion (Up by 13.2%)
- Vegetables: $5.2 billion (Up by 1.9%)
- Dairy, eggs, honey: $4.9 billion (Down by -3.3%)
- Organic chemicals: $3.4 billion (Down by -49.3%)
- Cereal/milk preparations: $2.8 billion (Down by -0.7%)
Netherlands has highly positive net exports in the international trade of machines including computers. Ishowu instant 1 2 9. In turn, these cashflows indicate strong competitive advantages for the Netherlands under the machinery product category.
Opportunities
Below are exports from the Netherlands that result in negative net exports or product trade balance deficits. These negative net exports reveal product categories where foreign spending on home country goods trail Dutch importer spending on foreign products.
- Mineral fuels including oil: -US$7.2 billion (Down by -45.6% since 2018)
- Vehicles: -$6.5 billion (Up by 91.7%)
- Electrical machinery, equipment: -$3.5 billion (Down by -53.5%)
- Clothing, accessories (not knit or crochet): -$2.7 billion (Up by 39%)
- Cereals: -$2.7 billion (Up by 0.2%)
- Furniture, bedding, lighting, signs, prefabricated buildings: -$2.6 billion (Up by 11.4%)
- Wood: -$2.3 billion (Down by -1.2%)
- Knit or crochet clothing, accessories: -$2.2 billion (Up by 43.9%)
- Aircraft, spacecraft: -$1.7 billion (Up by 190.8%)
- Ores, slag, ash: -$1.5 billion (Up by 0.5%)
Netherlands has highly negative net exports and therefore deep international trade deficits for mineral fuels-related products particularly crude oil and, to a lesser degree, petroleum gases and coal.
These cashflow deficiencies clearly indicate the Netherlands's competitive disadvantages in the international energy market, but also represent key opportunities for the Netherlands to improve its position in the global economy through focused innovations especially in alternative energy sources.

These 100 exported goods were worth a subtotal of US$462.9 billion or almost two-thirds (65.3%) by value for all products exported from the Netherlands during 2019.
In macroeconomic terms, the Netherlands' total exported goods represent 70.6% of its overall Gross Domestic Product for 2019 ($1.005 trillion valued in Purchasing Power Parity US dollars). That 70.6% for exports to overall GDP in PPP for 2019 compares to 74.6% for 2018. This suggests a relatively decreasing reliance on products sold on international markets for Netherlands' total economic performance albeit based on a short timeframe. Those percentages include a significant amount of re-exporting activity.
Another key indicator of a country's economic performance is its unemployment rate. The average unemployment rate for the Netherlands was 3.339% for 2019, compared to 3.839% one year earlier, according to the International Monetary Fund.
